Chapter 254: 147 Milk Fierce Little Pure Space (Second Update)_2
Children are usually easy to appease.
Having given the apology, the Young Master has retrieved his dignity and the matter is resolved.
However, Xiao JingKong had different thoughts, he looked at the other party in astonishment: “He also who hit me so why should I apologize to him? Will he apologize to me too after I’m done apologizing?”
The older man choked on his words.
The little boy cried out loud while kicking and screaming on the ground: “I won’t apologize to him! Arrest him! Arrest him! I want to punish him!”
Little JingKong’s ears were about to go deaf. How could a child cry so loudly?
The commotion attracted many curious students.
A few tutors also rushed to the site.
The tutors rounded up their students and took them back to their classes, leaving Master Jiang from the Genius Class.
Master Jiang just got the news last night that a student would be joining their Genius Class.
This student didn’t go through the entrance examination, but his status is very unique, the Guozijian couldn’t refuse him.
Master Jiang questioned the two children involved.
The little boy shouted, “He hit me!”
Little JingKong corrected him seriously, “No, we bumped into each other!”
Master Jiang didn’t take one side against Little JingKong, he didn’t force him to apologize without understanding the full story.
From what Master Jjiang understood of Little JingKong, if it were true that he hit the boy unilaterally, he would not deny it.
It was actually a small matter, explaining the situation to the two students then having them to shake hands and make up would be good enough.
Little JingKong was a reasonable child, he wouldn’t hold on to the issue if the other party also wanted to resolve it.
But the little boy disagreed.
He had never been wronged this much before!
“I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care! If he doesn’t kneel and admit his crime, I’ll arrest him!”
His agitation made Little Fat’s chubby body jump about. Little JingKong could feel the ground trembling.
Zheng Siye came over with a stern look on his face.
Master Jiang gave him a respectful bow: “Master Zheng.”
With the death of the young rite’s officiant and the rresignation of the old rite’s officiant, Zheng Siye became the highest official of the Guozijian. Recently, with the help of the Grand Councilor, he has been temporarily appointed as the rite’s officiant of the Guozijian.
If everything went as expected, he would be officially appointed as the rite’s officiant of Guozijian next year.
He had an imposing manner but immediately bowed and greeted the little boy when he saw him.
In Little JingKong’s understanding, only juniors would bow to their seniors and students to their teachers. This little boy was obviously neither Zheng Siye’s elder nor his teacher.
Why did Zheng Siye bow to him?
“May I ask, what has happened?” Zheng Siye asked with a smile on his face.
The little boy was stomping his feet, “I’ve said it many times! He bumped into me! He even knocked me down!”
Little JingKong frowned and said, “I’ve also said it many times, we bumped into each other!”
“How dare you! Who allows you to speak like that? You didn’t watch where you were going, you hit someone and still…” Zheng Siye was about to name him directly, remembered that he was enrolled as a commoner, hastily switched his wording, and said, “others! The students of Guozijian must be honest! Where did your virtues of propriety, righteousness, integrity and honour, your rules go?”
Little JingKong was very angry!
He shouted, “I have not lied! I have not lost my sense of morality! I understand the rules! Both of us bumped into each other! It was neither my fault entirely nor his solely! We collided simultaneously!”
Why didn’t anyone listen to him properly?
Was his voice not loud enough?
Was he not tall enough?
He was not a child who would refuse to admit his mistakes, but he couldn’t admit to mistakes that were not his to admit!
Master Jiang also felt that Zheng Siye wasn’t being fair, if both the officiants were here, they certainly wouldn’t have allowed this to happen.
“Master Zheng….” He began.
Zheng Siye coldly cut him off, “Shut up! Is this the kind of student you educate!”
Little JingKong clenched his fists, straightened his small arms, retorted: “Master Jiang is not wrong! The students he teaches are very outstanding! I am very outstanding! It’s you who should shut up! You should hear both sides in a case, you have not even asked me! You are entirely unjust! You are not worthy to be a teacher!”
It was very rare for Little JingKong to lose his temper and blurt out all these harsh words.
In the years of his upbringing, either the temple abbot or his master wouldn’t silence him because they couldn’t argue with him.
Whoever’s reasoning stood firm had the right to speak.
It was the same with Gu Jiao.
